Dr. Donoway is by far the best surgeon, very professional,caring and thorough. He is the only doctor I trust .I just had a lumpectomy on my left breast and everything was perfect from the beginning to the end, the whole process was very smooth. I was very pleased and would recommend him to anyone . He really cares about you . His staff is amazing too.

I finally have the courage to write this after many years of silence. Over ten years ago Dr. Donoway performed a lumpectomy on my right breast and left me severely scared. The scar has never healed and I live with the traumatizing reminder every day. I hope this message reaches someone doing their research and makes them think twice before undergoing any surgical procedure with this doctor. Unforgivable experience.
